Question:

Would a short in the maf sensor wiring harness cause codes p0102, p0113, or p0507.?

Yes, a short in the MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor wiring harness could potentially cause codes P0102, P0113, or P0507, depending on the specific circumstances.

P0102 is a generic OBD-II code that indicates a low voltage output from the MAF sensor. This code is triggered when the MAF sensor detects a lower than expected voltage signal, which could be caused by a short circuit in the wiring harness.

P0113 is another generic OBD-II code that refers to a high voltage output from the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, which is often integrated with the MAF sensor. A short in the MAF sensor wiring harness could lead to an incorrect signal being sent to the ECM (Engine Control Module), resulting in the high voltage reading and triggering this code.

P0507 is another generic OBD-II code that indicates a high idle speed. While it may not be directly related to the MAF sensor, a short in the wiring harness could potentially disrupt the signal between the MAF sensor and the ECM. This disruption in the airflow data could cause the ECM to miscalculate the ideal idle speed, leading to the code being triggered.

It's important to note that codes alone cannot definitively determine the specific cause of an issue. Proper diagnosis by a professional using a diagnostic scan tool is recommended to accurately pinpoint the problem and address any underlying electrical issues.
